[edit] Jazzy B
There are a few passing mentions of a Jazzy B on Google News, but not this Jazzy B. It doesn't appear that this Jazzy B meets either WP:BIO or WP:MUSIC as I can find zero in the way of reliable third party coverage here. coccyx bloccyx(toccyx) 16:04, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per the rationale I've provided as nominator. coccyx bloccyx(toccyx) 16:05, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- Weak Keep the article asserts notability (I think, with the hit album reference) but, it needs 3rd party reliable sources for verifiability. If the hit album doesn't assert notability please consider the keep above to be changed to a delete as I'm away from any sort of computer for the next several days.

- Comment. The subject should not be confused with Jazzie B, the music producer and founder of Soul II Soul. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 06:43, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete notability is asserted but not in a proven way (not sourced or verifiable) ultimately after this is deleted it should be redirected to the "Jazzie B" webpage. JBsupreme (talk) 03:17, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Google news archives yield a fair number of hits, including articles from the New York Times and Times of India, both of which I've added as external links. There's more that could be added, but these seemed to be from the two most reliable sources, and significant coverage in two reliable sources is enough to keep the article.

- Note: IP address 67.82.28.83 just left the following note on the talk page: "Dont delete this page. He is a legitimate artist with some big hits. However, the article needs to be expanted". Klausness (talk) 11:52, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- Keep, secondary coverage by the NYT and Times of India means that this person meets WP:BIO. Lankiveil (speak to me) 03:45, 1 June 2008 (UTC).
